- This is a change history of GWIN
-
- Release 1.0 - Initial Version
-
- Release 1.1 - Maintenance Version
-
- 1. New Aztec Manx 5.0 compiler/linker is incompatible with earlier
- versions of object code. Everything must be recompiled including
- my GWIN object files gwin.ff.o, gwin.ffCD.o, and gwin.fiCD.o. You
- need these new release 5.0 versions if you are using the 5.0 compiler
- because the old object files will not link with object files created
- using the new version of the compiler. Many thanks to Adam Benjamin
- of Michigan for bringing this to my attention. I had not realized that
- there was a problem until he called. I had been dragging my feet with
- respect to getting the new compiler since I always try to avoid early
- versions of software - Particularly compilers and operating systems.
- So now I have version 5.0b. (Or is it c? My disks came with the "b"
- scratched out and a "c" printed by hand.) I recompiled GWIN and that
- is the primary reason for redistributing the software.
-
- 2. Due to a book-keeping error on my part, the LATTICE-related
- object codes included on fish disk 322 (gwinl.ff.o, gwinl.ffCD.o,
- and gwinl.fiCD.o) were not the versions I intended to include.
- They represent a slightly earlier version. Glen Fullmer did a lot
- of work creating the Lattice versions of the GWIN object files and
- I blew it by not including the correct and most current version.
- My apologies to Glen and to all you other Lattice users. The version
- on 322 was functional unless you tried to use the global variables
- in gwin.user.h. At least one of my examples used the globals.
- The examples compiled and linked correctly for Glen back in Feb 89.
- He checked them out again for me today. Everything works if you use
- the versions on this disk. Thanks to Stephen L. Ferrell of Pittsburgh,
- Pa. for bringing this problem to my attention.

- 3. Modified the uprint and uprnt1 text handling routines to handle
- complement modes so that you can handle text like rubber-band lines
- are handled. (Essentially sets the XOR mode within the INTUITEXT
- structure if uset("comp") is in effect.)
-
- 4. Modified umove routine to handle the uset("ncli") operation more
- logically. The rubberbandbox demo had a problem when the border was
- included. The problem was that the umove routine was in effect applying
- clipping when it should not have been. This has been corrected.
